A viable doubles strategy involves greninja mat blocking while diancie rock polishes and proceeds to sweep. STAB diamond storm and moonblast are incredibly powerful, while psyshock is used to deal with special walls.

Diancie-Mega: Unranked >>>>>>> A+ Firstly, Diancie cannot learn Psyshock. It can learn Psychic, which its TM is unreleased. Rock Polish set may seems scary, but it lacks the way to deal with basically any steel types. Diamond Storm and Moonblast are inadequate to deal with them. Earth Power is unreleased as well. It is not as strong as it looks too, even with strong STABs.

252+ SpA Diancie-Mega Moonblast vs. 248 HP / 0 SpD Rotom-Wash: 187-222 (61.7 - 73.2%) -- guaranteed 2HKO after Leftovers recovery

32 Atk Diancie-Mega Diamond Storm vs. 248 HP / 96+ Def Venusaur: 159-187 (43.8 - 51.5%) -- 9% chance to 2HKO

And both of them can OHKO Diancie

Its average bulk and suboptimal defensive typing makes it hard to setup too. Its strong power in both physical and special moves makes up for it though. Sometimes Calm Mind also helps with its sweeping. Every non specially defensive mons that are not steel types fears Mega Diancie nevertheless.

Mega Diancie : Unranked >>> A- (Rock Polish set and Calm Mind set)

Diancie can learn psyshock through TM. My Diancie currently has it.
